Evolution Walk features reconstructions of ancient plants that have become extinct, in an eye-opening showcase of how plants have evolved.
Marvel at delicate eggs and newborn dinosaurs inside the incubators. And for a truly unforgettable moment, witness nature's own creation in action at the Pteranodon Nest.
Feel the texture of prehistoric dinosaur skin, breathe in the earthy scent of ancient forests, extract DNA from fossilized amber.
Come face-to-face with a ferocious, animatronic T-rex, then make your way to safety by slipping through a shattered fence, underneath her massive jaws.
Witness nature's time capsule and see how something as simple as tree sap became the treasure troves of DNA that made Jurassic World possible.
